Unlike most freepers, I liked Romney last time around. But he is now a non starter due to Romneycare.
My picks are Palin, Pence, DeMint, McDonell, Thune. In that order.
Duncan Hunter
Fred Thompson
Sarah Palin
Palin has no chance. Outside of FR, she is a joke, quit the governorship, and has too little experience. I like her and think there is a role for her, but she is not going to be president in 2012 or probably ever.
I like Pence. If he is interested, it will be interesting to see how he plays nationally without the name recognition.
DeMint would be ideal, but has no charisma. Unfortunatley, in a superficial world, that puts a nail in the coffin.
McDonnell ran a great campaign, but let’s see if he produces any results before annointing him. Virginia is in quite a mess and McDonnell still hasn’t talked about cutting spending.
I don’t know much about Thune other than that he is good looking and has good hair. Unfortunately, that is a qualifier.
